# What
|
|
|
|
Would love to prolong my part time Monero coding for another 3 months.
|
|
|
|
There are a couple of specific tasks i would like to work on first.
|
|
|
|
* Improve automatic public node selection algorithm used in `Simple mode` (`---bootstrap-daemon-address auto`).
|
|
Currently we use first iteration of the algo and according to the users' reports there is a room for improvement.
|
|
* Implement update downloading and verification functionality in Monero GUI.
|
|
There is standalone [monero-update](https://github.com/moneromooo-monero/monero-update) tool already.
|
|
Integrating the tool into Monero GUI is the next logical step forward, i.e. downloading and verification new update binaries just in one click.
|
|
* Focus on Monero daemon performance and stability.
|
|
I plan to do monerod cpu/memory profiling to investigate possible bottlenecks/weak places, implement appropriate optimizations/fixes based on the profiling results.
|
|
|
|
As usual will be working on Monero Core and Monero GUI code:
|
|
* Inspecting and implementing outstanding feature requests
|
|
* Submitting bug fixes
|
|
* New functinality
|
|
* Addressing ongoing issues
|
|
* Code review
|
|
* Putting my efforts where it is appropriate
|
|
|
|

# Proposal
|
|
|
|
Looking forward to coding and accomplishing mentioned and ongoing tasks and issues. Implementing new code/functionality that will be needed. Investigating bug reports and submitting bug fixes, fixing build and compilations errors/warnings/etc. Would like to inspect and complete/fix/address issues and feature requests that are reasonably desired and/or worth to spend time on. Improving GUI, fixing UI/UX issues, implementing design changes.

Dedicate 30 hours per week to Monero Project, at 55 USD/hour rate for a total of 307 XMR. XMR/USD rate is based on the 14-day moving average exponential on Kraken from 29 Jan 2020, which is approximately 64.43 XMR/USD.
